http://raisedinthewoods.blogspot.com/2013/01/recalibration.html
Raised in the Woods. Thursday, January 31, 2013. A couple of days ago I sat down to blog for the first time in 1,870 years. Apparently I have been having a tough time lately, because THIS is what came out. I'm feeling much better now, but the insanity should be documented regardless.

The suggestions in the catalogue do not include a scheme with white for the body. The color might be a little dull by some standards (grey, grey, and grey). But others like the "flesh" color and the orangey "fawn" are not seen much today, and would be bold choices. A visual tour of Bungalow exteriors from today. Antique Home Bungalow Style.

Raised in the Woods. Thursday, June 14, 2012. And now, for the brilliance of Tina Fey. Okay, I don't have daughters, but I think the majority of this applies nonetheless. This is courtesy of Her Awesomeness Ms. Tina Fey. The Mother's Prayer for its Daughter". First, Lord: No tattoos.
